Autonomy is an independent, progressive think tank with one focus: work.

We provide necessary analyses, policy proposals and on-the-ground solutions with which to confront the changing reality of work in society today. Our aim is to promote real freedom, equality and human flourishing above all.

Work is at the core of modern society.

However, today the nature and function of work is currently undergoing radical change as the result of various causes and tendencies. It is time to question how waged work is organised, question our fundamental beliefs about work and determine rational and enabling solutions to the problems we face. Our aim is therefore twofold:

Diagnose the deepening crisis of work in all of its facets.

Propose solutions to the current issues surrounding work whilst simultaneously generating ideas for a post-work society, based on the principles of freedom, equality and democracy.

KEY PRIORITIES
